Taking the Message To The Voters

 

This is a Video Brochure. It is a HD high definition LCD screen built into a card with storage for typically 6 videos each 2-3 minutes long. There are two buttons for Volume + or - , 6 buttons for videos and a self-contained rechargeable battery. Each video can be deleted and replaced by anyone with a laptop or tablet.

Just about everyone who responds to me is asking for new ways to get the messages across without using social media or Main Stream Media. We know we will never get an Independence-leaning broadcast channel in time for Holyrood Elections in ‘26 or the next GE. The Anglo-State wouldn't allow it in any case.

Many ‘Undecided’ voters probably don’t do much research, probably don’t want to switch on a laptop let alone search for information, so here’s what I’m thinking.

From a ‘reluctant users’ point of view, this brochure could not be simpler. You open the front cover and it starts without any buttons to press. You control the volume with two buttons. You select the videos by one of 6 buttons. Close cover, it switches off. No Wi-Fi or mobile signal needed.

What could be done is to provide and fund one of these per YES Group. Each brochure has a selection of up to 6 videos at a time. Each YES group decides on which videos they think are most appropriate that week and upload to the brochore. If they know of an ‘Undecided’ voter in their area, they leave this with them for say 2-3 days. After 3 days they collect the brochure after first having a chat with them, and repeat with other voters.

Clearly only having one brochure limits reach but extras can be provided. Brochures could be posted, but it defeats the opportunity for eye-to-eye discussion.

The videos on the brochure can be changed easily using a laptop or tablet, so any new rebuttal messages can be added or removed as often as you want.

A brochure typically costs the same as one of our Large Banners supplied earlier this year and can be used over and over again.

If you are in favour of me looking into this further please let me know quickly.
